GRADUATE BUSINESS PROGRAMS
MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Director: Dr. Ben L. Kyer
The Master of Business Administration degree program is designed
to prepare students for management positions in business, government,
industry, and non-profit institutions and to provide continuing
educational opportunities for those persons already so employed
in the Pee Dee Region of South Carolina. All required courses
are offered during the evening hours.
In 1998, the School of Business received approval from the South
Carolina Commission on Higher Education to offer the Master of
Business Administration degree with Concentration in Health Management.
This program has the same admissions requirements as the regular
Master of Business Administration program and requires 36 hours
of graduate level courses. The 18 hours required in business subjects
are taught by graduate faculty of the FMU School of Business.
The 15 hours of health management courses are taught by the graduate
faculty of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) over
a state-of-the-art distance learning network. The remaining three
hours are electives and can be taken from other FMU courses or
from other MUSC courses. Graduates of this program receive the
M.B.A. degree from FMU along with the Certificate in Health Management
from MUSC. The Master of Business Administration degree with concentration
in Health Management program is designed both for individuals
who currently work in the health care field and for those who
would like the background enabling them to enter the field.
